Valença Fortress

 It's funny that I had already visited Valença several times, but only this time I realized that there was a part of the fortification that I hadn't visited yet!




Valença Fortress

On the way back we stopped in Valença to visit and have lunch




Tomb of Dom Vasco Marinho, Main Church of Monção

 We visited the main church in the morning, just before we leave. This tomb really stands out.



Monção Hot Springs

 For a change, the weather was great and we were able to explore the city a little.




Monção City Wall

 A couple of months ago my wife and I spent a weekend in Monção

Peñafiel Castle

 This postcard was sent by Francisco






Nerja

 Nerja we didn't visit but I found the postcard in Torrox Costa




Frigiliana

 Since I don't like the beach that much, we also took time to see the surroundings




Torrox Costa

 Since my wife loves the beach, we spent 3 days in Torrox Costa




Plaza de España, Seville

 We spent two days in Seville, one on Magic Island and another to get to know the city. It's not enough, there's a lot to see. Once again it was very hot, but it was totally worth it.

Itálica, Santiponce

 We passed close to this ancient Roman city, but we didn't stop




Itálica, Santiponce

 After Mérida we headed to Seville and that's where I bought a couple of postcards from Itálica




Amphitheatre of Mérida

 The only place we paid for was the Alcazaba, from where I didn't find postcards...




Roman Theatre of Mérida

 We did not visit the theater or the amphitheater




Temple of Diana, Mérida

 In Mérida, some monuments can be seen for free, others cannot. This is one that you don't have to pay to see.




Los Milagros Aqueduct, Mérida

 The third stop was in Mérida, where we spent the night. In the morning we visited the city

Plaza Mayor and San Martin Church, Trujillo

 We arrived at Trujillo by the time of the siesta. It was extremely hot and everything was closed, but I loved the place.
